Kiss – Gene Simmons

 

Genre:

Rock

Style:

Hard Rock

Year:

1978

Notes:

An ambitious "Solo" project with 4 special records was released in 1978. Their 4 Solo albums were released simultaneously in one day. The record label apparently invested about $2.5 million on marketing and promotions for the solo project. For the USA market and vinyl pressing, LP's featured a special jigsaw poster of each member that when you purchased all 4 solo LP's connected together into one large poster or mural. Also included in the unique releases was a Kiss Army/merchandise order form, and custom inner photo sleeve showing all of the 4 releases.


The songs "Burning up With Fever", "Man of 1000 Faces" and "True Confessions" were demoed in August 1975 for the Kiss - Destroyer album but rejected by Bob Ezrin. "See You Tonite" was also demoed in 1975, and the demo versions of all four songs are on the Gene Simmons - The Vault box set, along with a 1976 demo of "Mr Make Believe".
